The Agency operates one of the largest education systems in the Middle East, providing education services to nearly half a million Palestine refugee children through some 700 schools located in Jordan, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, the Syrian Arab Republic and the West Bank. Nearly half of UNRWA schools are located within the camps.
